Chapter 9
Doctor Wen's clinic is a good place, but unfortunately he has no shortage of manpower here.

"Sister, I'm already cured, I'm dying!"

"Young Master, don't worry, you can come to Wen for medical treatment in the future."

When they left, Doctor Wen gave them two more medicines.

Qianru thanked them again and again, and told Zhixuan to remember this benefactor who helped them in every possible way.

Zhixuan nodded firmly, and fell asleep in a daze after a while.

Dr. Wen saw that she had lingering fears, and explained that it was caused by the medicine.

She was more relieved, thanked him again, and left with Zhixuan on her back.

It snowed last night, and the road was a bit slippery after the snow melted.

She almost fell several times, and accidentally woke up Zhixuan, and the little guy stubbornly wanted to get down and walk by himself.

When I was sleepy, I rubbed my eyes and wanted to walk by myself, until I couldn't bear it anymore, and then I would obediently go to her back and stay there.

Small arms around her neck, small body against her.

I feel very happy to carry my brother on my back.

She carried it hard, gritted her teeth and carried it to the door of the house before waking him up.

Before it was dark, she hurried to the West Market for a walk, bought fish and vegetables, and wanted to cook a better meal for Zhixuan.

When I didn't want to come back, I was pestered by a drunk.

After finally getting rid of her, the man followed her all the time.

Terrified, she ran all the way home and bolted the door.

Unexpectedly, she was still in shock, but the man broke through the door and broke in to start a fight with her.

Seeing this, Zhixuan picked up the old clay pot under the eaves and climbed onto the table, aiming at the drunk man's head and hitting it.

The drunk man fell to the ground with blood all over his face, unconscious.

Just when the siblings were at a loss, Mama Hua suddenly came and yelled in horror when she saw the situation.

"Oh, a lot of blood, a lot of blood, you killed people, killed people"

Qianru was worried that Zhixuan would be arrested, so she dragged Mama Hua into the yard and locked the door behind her.

Because she had rejected Mama Hua before, Mama Hua took the opportunity to make things difficult for her and demanded 50 taels of hush money.

Qianru had no choice but to give her all the silver she had on her body, but Mother Hua didn't think much of it at all, and threw it on the ground in contempt.

"You guys should keep this money to buy a coffin for yourself!"

Seeing that Mother Hua refused, Qianru picked up the stool and threw it on the drunk man's head screaming.

She just wanted to take the blame on herself, but she didn't expect the drunk to dodge quickly.

A moment after the drunk got up, his eyes rolled, and he began to drag Mama Hua and call her mother. His behavior was childish, as if he was stupid.

"Hmph, this is the son of Yuanwai Li outside the west city. Now you have made him foolish. If you want to settle down, unless you prepare 1000 taels."

Which wealthy member would agree to accept a mere 1000 taels to spare the murderer who smashed his son?

This is obviously not something that money can settle.

Qianru took her younger brother and rushed out of the door, intending to surrender to the government and bear the blame alone.

Mother Hua thought she was going to run away, so she hurriedly blocked them.

At the same time, the old man was not stupid any more, he yelled at them to lose money, and if they didn't pay, he would report to the officials.

Drunk for a while, stupid for a while, sober again for a while.

Qianru can see that this is not an ordinary drunk, he and Mama Hua sing and sing together, one yin and one yang, it is clear that there is a secret collusion.

She bitterly protected Zhixuan behind her, pretended to be very scared, and begged them to show their respect in a low voice.

Mr. Yuanwai asked for 1000 taels, but Mama Hua pretended to help her get 200 taels, and then generously lent her the money.

She sneered and exposed their conspiracy.

"Poisonous woman, you have tried every means, but you just want to force someone into prostitution, but you met the wrong person, I would rather go to jail than get into your boat."

Even though she's already worn out, Mother Hua is not in a hurry, and instead calmly pretends to be a good person.

"It's a fact that you hurt people, and you will lose money sooner or later. Mom, I just want to help you for the sake of getting acquainted.

You can bear all the blame, but what about your brother?Who will take care of him in the future?It's better to turn the big thing into a small thing, why bother to go to the Yamen to sue? "

She understood that this mother Hua had taken the common weakness of people in their situation, being helpless and afraid of causing trouble.

She had an idea and smiled lightly.

"It's only 1000 taels. It's not that I can't take it out, it's just that I don't want to ask for help until I'm in a desperate situation. You follow me, and within half a day, I will definitely give it to you."

Mother Hua didn't know their details, so she asked someone to bandage the grandpa, and followed them to ask for money.

Half of the rich and powerful in the capital live in Ziyi Lane.

As soon as they entered there, Mama Hua's complexion suddenly changed, and she began to pretend to persuade Grandpa to ask for less, and to calm things down.

"You can't ask for less, the dignitaries here are not short of money at all, if you ask for less, I can't ask for it!"

"What is your background?"

Seeing Luo Wang's mansion close in front of her eyes, she pointed to the imposing vermilion gate and said, "Have you heard of Yushi Antai who made a big fuss in the execution ground?"

That incident was extremely sensational. How could a woman like Mama Hua not know about it. Thinking that her surname was also An, she immediately understood, "Little hooves, so you are defrauding Mr. Li."

She calmly smiled and said, "Since my mother is a sensible person, I don't hide it either. My father died in vain not long ago, and the murderer is most likely the King Luo. You just send us to the King Luo's mansion, why worry about not having money? Let alone 1000 taels Silver, even 1000 taels of gold, the prince is willing to take it out."

"Crazy, crazy!"

Mother Hua was furious, but because she was at the gate of the palace, she didn't dare to act presumptuously.

"Let's go, Mrs. Hua and Mr. Li, you will definitely get money when you go in."

The stupid Mr. Li actually followed her, but was dragged back by Mrs. Hua, "Idiot, do you want to drag me to death?"

"If I can't get the money, my beating will be in vain. I want money!"

"I'm afraid you'll see the coffin before you see the money!" Mama Hua dragged the grandpa to a corner and muttered for a while, and the two men warned them viciously that seeing them again in the future would definitely make them feel overwhelmed.

Seeing that the two had gone far away, Qianru hurriedly took her younger brother to go in the opposite direction.

After lingering outside the gate of Prince Luo's mansion for so long, she was already covered in cold sweat from fright.

Fortunately, the soldiers guarding the gate did not drive them away, let alone recognize them.

"Sister, I'm so sleepy! I can't walk."

She didn't rest much for a few days, and she couldn't walk anymore, but this Ziyi Lane is not a place to stay for a long time, she has to leave quickly.
